I went with a 928 many years ago that I still have but the 850 lways fascinated me...reminds me of an early 90's shootout: 850, XJS, 928, 560SEC

Both thye 850 and 928 have a very 'what the heck is that' appeal...but in terms of performance/functionallity/driving experience, I adore the 928. The car is anorexic compared to the 850, and unfortunately has x2 of every part (ecus, fuel pumps, ect).

I had a similar BMW moment when deciding to get an e24 M6 after having an e28 535 that had served me very well. With all the talk behind to e24, I was definetly disappointed with the experience because of the weight.

Both cars are awesome autobahners, and the 850 in my opinion is a less seen and more modern as a counterpoint (and the v12 is unbelieveably smooth)...at the end of the day its your call
